Brad "B-Rad" Nelson Rap Sheet

What makes B-Rad tick?  B-Rad gravitated toward weight training at age 15 “to get huge muscles” and quickly discovered his fascination with the human body.  He has a fairly twisted sense of humor and routinely thinks out loud unfiltered.  In B-Rad’s spare time he enjoys devouring non-fiction books, exploring his own athletic potential, air-drumming to the greatest band of all time Led Zeppelin, marveling at the genius of Seinfeld, being a sucker for his wife’s high-maintenance King Cavalier “Penelope”, playing pack leader for his African Boerboel Mastiff “Diesel”, enjoying the development of his newborn son—Bonham, and gratefully being served humble-pie daily by his beautiful feisty wife—Jordan.

Brad holds every client accountable to attain unwavering results. Whether you want to get out of pain, seek body transformation, or pursue greater athletic potential…fortunately you have found the Holy Grail. Contact Brad today!
